Ebay MAXIMUM BHP MPG ETC. ETC. scams!

Right... Theres been so much of this pointless shit around ebay. When I first saw it, people used techinical explinations and graphs and shit to explain how it all worked... but it seems these days people are getting lazy as fuck.

TL/DR - Post stupid ebay ads

Cable tie this peice of cloth to your fuel line - EXTRA MPG AND BHP!

I heard that these actualy do something, I'm not sure what, but I'll be its bad for your engine :\

Just plug this shit into your cigarrette lighter and it boosts power and saves mpgs!

And just for the lulz... this isnt a scam, but brembo covers for your regular calipers...

as always, interesting ideas but obviously cannot live up to their claims....

fuelshark one though, seems the ad makes more claim than the company... they just say will save you a couple miles per gallon by almost "cleaning" your electrics... perhaps less draw on alternator, less work for the car.. seems like it could work... but again, "in theory"

fifth gear did a test on a similar one - 1mpg difference over 50miles... but i mean.. what are the chances of you going out twice, and getting exactly the same mpg ?
